brygphilomena, in Who in your opinion is the modern day equivalent to Mozart?

Jack Antonoff has some incredible talent. He’s written and produced a lot of iconic pop music.

Bookmarks/saved should be per account if the app implemented that correctly. Go to lemmy.world/u/Grimy?view=Saved to see if they saved.

OceanSoap, in Who in your opinion is the modern day equivalent to Mozart?

To Mozart? I think Tony Ann fits that bill. He’s not super well known yet, but he’s on his way there.

xionzui, in What is an obscure piece of media or videogame that you think nobody else here has heard of?

This absolutely terrible in the most hilarious ways B movie that may or may not have ever actually been released called The Astrologer. It was filmed in 1975 and apparently lost until just recently. A local theater got a copy and did a showing of it. Fortunately, it’s now preserved on the internet archive! archive.org/…/the-astrologer-1975-previously-lost…

RBWells, in Honestly - How much will you sacrifice for a better world?

Is it guaranteed? I’d much rather lift everyone up to at least my standard of living, than squash everyone down to the lowest common denominator. But if you told me every family on earth could have what we do if I alone lived on the street, begging from them for the rest of my life, sure, I’d do it

Not really a particular piece of media, but I saw an artist on twitter that made anime style art but with a Tex Avery twist, it’s very strange seeing it but it intrigued me so much.

Warning though some of it is NSFW: twitter.com/acrylictoon

Woah, that embed opens their entire Twitter feed within kbin. Also pretty interesting art style.

Abucketofpuppies, in What is an obscure piece of media or videogame that you think nobody else here has heard of?

There was a game from my childhood for the Dreamcast called E.G.G. (Elemental Gimmick Gear). I’ve never heard anyone else talk about it, but I remember it being super cool

sizzler, (edited ) in What is an obscure piece of media or videogame that you think nobody else here has heard of?

ZZT, I think the game that completes “Ready Player One” is loosely referencing it.

Edit: Holy cow, I had no idea

This is a kids song that's catchy. 90k views. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=-uPsYA35qfQ

ULS, in What is the best modern song for a door bell?

Just be normal and use a DMX song.

I don’t remember how we had it but when I was growing up, we had a pc game called Adventures with Chickens. I might have to track down a copy and play it again because I’m confused as to why MobyGames says the game has “shoot 'em up elements” when I’m pretty sure it doesn’t.

amio, in Why do people not understand that you can agree with one thing someone said or did while disagreeing with the majority of what they stand for?

People, particularly people with controversial or "edgy" opinions, and especially people with JP-style controversial edginess, tend to hide their opinions behind that exact thing. His fanbase tends to be pretty religious about it and so people who start prattling on about his stuff come off as a red flag. It's a bit like "I'm not racist or anything, but-": you sorta know what's coming.

It's knee-jerk stereotyping, but not exclusively for a poor reason: it's a consequence of a bunch of his fans being cagey. You can obviously quote him or know some quotes without agreeing, but maybe it helps to make it clear. Or just don't refer much to him at all, I guess: anyone who doesn't already know about him can't really profit from learning about his BS.

DwightAllRight, (edited ) in Which YouTuber still creates high-quality videos to this day?

Some big ones have been mentioned here, but to fill in some I think were missed: Gamer’s Nexus (best example of ethical tech journalism out there, been the source of some major exposés in the tech industry); Overanalyzing Avatar (Gives honest takes with a unique and humorous perspective on the ATLA and related series); SortedFood (British cooking show with a focus on avoiding food waste by a bunch of friends, a few of whom are Michelin chefs); Spiffing Brit (Exploits and breaks games in a hilarious fashion, genuinely brilliant, loves tea); ZeFrank (Animal TrueFacts channel); Potato McWhiskey (I hope you like Civ VI, one of the best players out there); Viva La Dirt League (Does live skits based on video game and employment tropes); Ididathing (Guy makes wacky but insanely dangerous contraptions); NileRed (Bonkers brain here, has actually turned Paint Thinner into Cherry Soda and other ridiculous chemistry) .

winnebago man. Not as obscure after they made the movie, but the found film of that era has a few other hits if you go down the rabbit hole
